Okay this is ridiculous!
There's got to be more into this than just replacing a certain application with another.
I mean unless Banshee to so much better than Rhythmbox (which is not), then what's the point of stashing it in there instead of Rhythmbox?
I don't know if this is paranoia or not, but I'm beginning to smell something going on under the table. This is just too silly to make sense.
